India is a country known for it's beautiful traveling destinations be it Pilgrimage Sites or Holiday Spots. The best way to travel in India has been recommended by train. Today, the Indian Railways has become the Largest Railway Organization to function under a single management known as the Union Ministry of Railways handled by the Government of India. Many people from children to grown ups in India and the rest of the World are very fond of trains and train traveling. In this age of Internet, this passion has given rise to a number of Railway Oriented Websites like India Rail Info and Indian Train Blog which consist of Train and other Railway related information for Internet Users.

Many members of such Rail Oriented websites have coined a new term known as Rail Fanning. This term refers to fans which means those people who are very passionate and fond of all Railway related stuff be it Trains, Railway Stations, Train Travel and so on. Since these websites are informal in their approach to people, it also shows that they are Private Sites running without any government help.

In the days to come, the number and popularity of such travel websites will only increase as people now also want to go for voluntary information sharing. Search Engines like Google and Yahoo will display more relevant travel oriented data on their blog searches because of such sites.
